Official Pinball Table Guides

I have decided to create a Thread where I can post links to all the Official Table Guides which have been produced for Marvel Pinball, Pinball FX 1 & FX2, Star Wars Pinball, Zen Pinball 2 etc. so far. I will continue to update this thread. Special Thanks goes out to Zen Studios!

PLEASE NOTE! - where you see (!) it indicates that the Table is available on multiple Platforms such as PFX2 & ZP2 etc. The Tables themselves are the mostly the same, otherwise it will be noted within the Guide itself!

moon Knight extra balls

Hey,

I managed to get extra balls all the ways listed in the Moon Knight guide. However I seem to hit a hard cap of total extra balls around 5 - after that, extra ball will no longer light up. Doesn't matter if I get the 5 on the first balls or over the course of the game but once I git the cap, no more no matter what I do. Is there such a cap or am I doing something wrong?

Yes! Every table has a cap on extra balls. It's usually set to "5 per game". You can change the cap in the Operator's Menu (from 0-10).

Thanks a Million

I would like to thank ShoryukenToTheChin for all of the fantastic guides he's created for Pinball FX2. Not only am I impressed to the nth degree, I think these guides are some of the best I've ever read because they are straightforwards and easy to understand. You've done a brilliant job.

I was struggling to score decently on any of the 71 tables from this series I own, partly because I have memory problems (due to serious head injury following a road traffic accident) and couldn't figure out what sequences to remember, where the sweet spot was to get skill shots etc. When I did get a skill shot I'd soon forget, or wouldn't have made a note of where the ball plunger was to repeat the process.

Thanks to your guides I've started to get some reasonable scores and am enjoying the experience much more; in fact I'm starting to better friends scores that I never thought to pass in. Thanks a million for the amazing mass of work you've created. I'm sure there are going to be some slight differences between the tables you used and the PC versions I'm playing but so far the table guides I've used for the Steam version of Pinball FX2 have been extremely helpful. Pinball is one of my favorite physics based arcade games but becasue of the problems I have, these guides have been a god send.

I'd love to own a pinball arcade with both real and digital pinball's filling the place. I look with envy at those in the US; virtually every city has a pinball and old arcade game museum where you can go and play all of the tables and cabinets. My idea of a perfect day out. We actually visited a four story arcade (forgot the name) in Orlando Florida when we were on vacation back in 2010. Both the kids and I loved it, my wife, well she tolerated it, lol.

Have you any plans to create guides for the other big pinball series such as Pinball Arcade that is in its sixth season now as well as Zaccarina Pinball and the recently released set of pinball's in the Pinball HD collection? All three of those series are also excellent pinball games that could do with guides like the ones you have created.

Thank you truly

Sadly I have no plans for guides on the Pinball Arcade line of Tables. Thanks again. Its Community members such as yourself that make writing up these guides so rewarding.

Pinball Guide Videos

Everyone I have added a link to the OP that has a link to a playlist containing over 200+ vids featuring various tables. Completing modes & what not. Please give them a look. I have recently added Bethesda Pinball & Rogue One vids.
